The nice folks at H&R Block have invited me to give away a copy of TaxCut’s Premium Federalsoftware, which includes free federal e-file (but I believe you have to pay to e-file for your state). If you haven’t yet purchased tax-prep software, go ahead and enter for a chance to win!

To enter:

1. Leave a comment here. Be sure to leave your correct contact e-mail address on the form (not in the comment text box) so I can get in touch with you if you win.

2. If you’re expecting a refund, tell us what you plan to do with it. If you expect to owe money, just state that.

3. I will draw a winner using Random.org.

4. Entries will be accepted until Friday, March 6 at midnight EST.

If you win, I will e-mail you and post about it here. You will have 24 hours to get in touch with me and tell me where to send your prize. If I don’t hear from you, I will have to draw another winner.

Good luck!

Oh, and if you’re curious: We’re expecting a net refund of about $600. All of that is going to the principal of our car loan.

I hope we get a little bit back. How do you feel about the amount you are getting back? If I remember correctly, isn’t that how much you get back from the stimulus from having the baby? If so, I think it’s AWESOME you all almost broke even. That’s pretty cool. :)

Sadly, we’re looking at a refund because Scott took off several weeks of paternity leave in 2008. We always try to owe the government a few bucks come tax time so we didn’t hand them an interest free loan. Any refund will go toward our mortgage refinance so we can own our home in 15 years (or less) instead of 30.

Sorry, comments for this entry are closed at this time.

Hey! I'm Kacie, wife to Shane and mother to Jonathan (7), Vivienne (5) and Amelia (2) . I write about my family's finance: how we save money, improve our spending, and plan for the future.

I hope I can inspire and encourage you to improve your situation. See disclosure.
